3. When you see a "Successfully submitted 1 request(s) to the Administration Process," click OK.

1. Open the Administration Requests database (Admin4.nsf), and then open the Certification Authority Requests/Certificate Requests view and find the new request.
2. Open the request and verify the information in it.
3. Click Edit Request, then Approve Request. Press F9 until the request changes from "New" to "Issued."

1. Close the Administration Requests database and return to the Certificate Requests database.
2. Open the Pending/Submitted Certificates view and locate the request. If necessary, refresh the view.
